Xero

Xero's PDF import is not the whole map.

Xero can import a statement PDF natively in the US and Canada, on selected banks, from a digital file that is not password-protected. Everywhere else, and for scans, combined files, or a close that must match the paper, convert here and import the Xero CSV or OFX.

    Where Xero's own import stops

    Xero can import a statement PDF directly in the United States and Canada, for selected banks, from a digital PDF that is not password-protected. That covers a lot of US and Canadian files. It does not cover the UK, Australia, New Zealand or South Africa, a scan, a combined statement, a password-protected file, or a bank outside the selection.

    What you get here

    Xero bank-import CSV in Xero's own template columns: Date, Amount (money in positive, money out negative), Payee, Description, Reference, Check Number.

    Pick the date format for your organisation: MM/DD/YYYY, DD/MM/YYYY or YYYY-MM-DD.

    OFX from the same grid, with no Intuit tags. Xero imports it directly. Transaction IDs and balances are identical to the CSV and the .qbo.

    Both come after the proof. The grid has to tie to the printed opening and closing balance first.

    The import path

    Accounting → Bank accounts → Manage account → Import a statement. Choose the file and confirm the column mapping Xero proposes. Then reconcile to the printed closing balance you already saw tie. The proof, step by step →

    What the review catches

    Notes for a reviewer, not a verdict. Each one points at the rows behind it.

    Balance does not tie

    Opening + credits − debits must equal the printed closing. If it does not, there is no download and no charge.

    Months that do not chain

    February's opening has to be January's closing. Gaps and overlaps get a note.

    Duplicate and transfer rows

    The same date, amount and description twice, or a row that moves money between your own accounts. Flagged before it is booked as income or expense.

    Nothing is stored on our side. The PDF is parsed in memory and discarded when the response is sent. Security notes →

    A statement that does not tie is not billed. Any first charge is refundable within 14 days. Billing and refunds →

    Swipe sideways to see every column.

    This grid exists only in this tab. Click a cell to edit date, description or amount; ± flips debit/credit. The proof re-runs on every edit. Convert another statement

    Download .qbo

    QuickBooks checks these before accepting the file.

      Not listed? Leave it blank — the file uses a documented generic institution ID and imports under a generic label.

      Download the Xero bank import (.csv)

      Xero's own template columns: Date, Amount (money in positive, money out negative), Payee, Description, Reference, Check Number. The date has to match your Xero organisation's region.

      How to import
      Accounting → Bank accounts → Manage account → Import a statement, choose this file, and confirm the column mapping Xero proposes. Xero also imports the OFX file directly.
